Graduation

So yesterday I participated at the 120th Spring Commencement Ceremony at USD. I got to see the first USD AuD student get hooded and graduate and then I graduated myself. It's still pretty surreal to me that I graduated and that I'm completely done with life at USD. I pretty much cried during the entire ceremony and I hate all the pics my mom took of me because my face is all puffy and my eyes are red. I forgot how emotional I can be sometimes:) My name was actually pronounced correctly which was pretty amazing for me.
There were a few sad things about graduation though. My grandpa was in the hospital so him and my grandma weren't able to come watch and Lauren (the best friend anyone could have) would have sat next to me during the ceremony as the person next to me was a Snyder and obviously Smyrak comes before that.
Basically I'm graduated and I'm really on my way to becoming a Doctor of Audiology! It's so crazy.

P.S. I'm tearing up as I write this, I'm that emotional!
P.P.S. I'm still not fully recovered from celebrating on Thursday night! Pictures will probably be up on Facebook soon.
